Whether we are contemplating the lights on a tree, the patter of reindeer hoofs or the gentle fall of snow in a grove of pine trees, the holidays are a time of wonder. Here in the darkness of December our eyes must grow wide in the dim light and perhaps, in wonder, they see more.
Chor Leoni is proud to present to you Star of Wonder, a celebration of the music and hopes of the season. We want this concert to be a time of reflection, laughter and rejoicing, surrounded by the singing lions of Vancouver. We are so happy to share this time of year with you, because your presence makes us feel like our singing is such a vital part of this community. Our wish this evening is to give through our music all of the joy, mirth and goodwill this season promises.
Erick Lichte, Artistic Director
Translations and selected texts
O Magnum Mysterium
O great mystery, and wonderful sacrament,that animals should see the new-born Lord,lying in a manger! Noel! Noel!
O Come, All Ye Faithful (sing along carol)
O come, all ye faithful, joyful and triumphant!O come ye, O come ye to Bethlehem;Come, and behold him, born the king of angels:O come, let us adore him, Christ the Lord.
See how the shepherds, summoned to His cradle,Leaving their flocks draw nigh, with lowly fear.We too will thither bend our joyful footsteps.
Yea, Lord, we greet thee, born this happy morning;Jesus, to thee be glory given!Word of the Father, now in flesh appearing!O come, let us adore him, Christ the Lord.
�
Ave Maria
The angel of God visited Mary and she conceived of the Holy Spirit.
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you.Blessed are you among women,and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus.
Mary said: see the servant of the Lord. May it happen to me according to your word.
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you.Blessed are you among women,and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus.
And the Word became flesh and lived among us.
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you.Blessed are you among women,and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners,Holy Mary, pray for us now and in the hour of our death.Amen.
Star of Wonder poetry by Terre Roche
Star of Wonder in the heavenswonder what you want of me?Should I follow you tonight, Star of Wonder?
I am just a lonely shepherd, watching from a distant hill.Why do you appear to me?Star of Wonder, if you will.
Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening poetry by Robert Frost
Whose woods these are I think I know. His house is in the village though; He will not see me stopping here To watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer To stop without a farmhouse near Between the woods and frozen lake The darkest evening of the year.
In the morning,they’ll come looking for the shepherd on the hill;what would make her leave her flock,for surely she must love them still.
Star of Wonder in the heavens, are you just a shining star?Or should I follow you tonight?Star of Wonder, Star of Wonder?Shining bright.
He gives his harness bells a shake To ask if there is some mistake. The only other sound’s the sweep Of easy wind and downy flake.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep, And miles to go before I sleep, And miles to go before I sleep.
�
How Long the Night Can Last poetry by Stephen Hatfield
When my room, my house, my street, my town are all at rest,Let the silence tell the gentle little secret;Silence it best.
Save me, save me save me, I pray,Save me, save me, save me, Christmas Day.
I’ve been waiting up to see how long the night can last,When my time is done, this gentle little secret will be holding fast.
Save me, save me, save me, I pray,Save me, save me, save me, Christmas Day.
Los Pastores Translation by Helen Eby
Come, shepherds from the fields! The King of Kings has already been born!Come before dawn, because the day is coming and the night is almost over!
Basil, cedrón, thyme, laurel,the child will go to sleep at dawn.
Come from Pinchas, Chuque, Aminga, San Pedro, Poman!Before anybody worships him, we will take him some cheeses and flowers.
Ask Julio Romero for some riding horses and his riding mule.We will be singing through the olive grove with guitars and drums.
¡Christmas in Aimogasta! There will be enough egg nog and hard cider!While the moon in La Rioja is wishing, with all its heart, that it could join us.
Rach’uli Alilo
God has given us Christmas, and may you have many happy New Years. Alilo here, many alilo!

MYVoice & RBC Foundation: Creating Music Together
In this season of gift giving and gratitude, Chor Leoni would like to acknowledge and thank the RBC Foundation for its ongoing sponsorship of Mobilizing Young men’s Voices (MYVoice).
This vital support through the RBC Emerging Artists Project enables us to offer MYVoice in three Lower Mainland locations: Vancouver, Burnaby, and North Vancouver. MYVoice is a FREE program that helps young men aged 12 to 20 to find their voices, develop their confidence, and nurture their interest and commitment to music and culture.

Angels We Have Heard On High (sing along carol)
Angels we have on heard high,sweetly singing through the night.And the mountains in reply,echoing their great delight.Gloria in excelsis Deo.
Shepherds, why this jubilee?Why your joyous strains prolong?What the gladsome tidings be,which inspire your heavenly song?Gloria in excelsis Deo.
See him in a manger laid,whom the choirs of angels praise.Mary, Joseph, lend your aid,while our hearts in love we raise. Gloria in excelsis Deo.

Known internationally and loved locally, Chor Leoni Men’s Choir is recognized as one of the vanguard male vocal ensembles in North America. With stylistic grace and an adventurous spirit, Vancouver’s Singing Lions have enriched and transformed people’s lives through singing for over twenty years. Chor Leoni performs in many languages and styles and genres, always aiming to communicate, engage, and entertain.
The ensemble has been honoured with many awards at the national and international level, including five 1st place awards in the CBC National Radio Competition for Amateur Choirs. In July 2012, Chor Leoni won a dozen awards at the 51st Concorso Internazionale di Cano Corale “Seghizzi” (Italy), including 1st place trophies in the 19th and 20th Century categories, two Audience Favourite awards, and 2nd place in the competition’s overall Grand Prix. Chor Leoni prides itself on its musical ambassadorship for Vancouver and Canada and has performed at major music festivals and concert venues across Canada and the United States. Internationally, the choir has shared its music in Italy, Croatia, Bosnia, and the Czech Republic. Chor Leoni has been a champion of new music and has commissioned hundreds of pieces for male choir, ranging from pop and folksong arrangements to modern works. The ensemble has commissioned works by notable composers, such as Robert Sund, Stephen Chatman, Bruce Sled, Malcolm Forsyth, R. Murray Schaefer, Bob Chilcott, Stephen Smith, and Peter Togni, among others.
Believing in the transformative power of male singing, Chor Leoni annually engages young male singers in two successful education programs. PROMYS (PROgram for Mentoring Young Singers) invites some of the most talented male singers from the Lower Mainland to join with Chor Leoni in rehearsals and performances and MYVoice (Mobilizing Young men’s Voices) provides an opportunity for teenage boys to come together in all-male choirs to find their changed voices, develop their confidence, and nurture their interest and commitment to music and culture.
Chor Leoni was founded in 1992 by Diane Loomer, C.M., and is currently conducted by Erick Lichte.

Erick Lichte has carved out a distinct niche in the vocal music world and concert life of North America. The Washington Post has hailed the “audacity” of his programming, the Chicago Tribune has noted the “meticulous preparation” of his choirs and Fanfare Magazine declared that he created and helmed “the premier men’s vocal ensemble in the United States.”
As a founding member, singer and Artistic Director of the male vocal ensemble Cantus, Lichte created and sustained one of only two full-time vocal ensembles in the United States. From 2000-2009, Lichte’s programming and artistic direction were heard in over sixty concerts a year and he has collaborated with artists such as Bobby McFerrin, the Boston Pops, the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra, Doc Severinsen, and the Minnesota Orchestra. His work with Cantus garnered
the 2009 Margaret Hillis Award for Choral Excellence, the highest honour from the professional choral organization Chorus America.
As a choral conductor, Lichte has served as conductor for many professional, educational, and amateur choral ensembles. In January of 2013, he began his tenure as Artistic Director of Chor Leoni Men’s Choir based in Vancouver, BC. Lichte is an active clinician and guest conductor, and is especially passionate in his work to get young men singing. Lichte is a published composer and arranger, especially known for his writing in All is Calm: the Christmas Truce of 1914 which has been taken on five North American tours and will, this year, be presented at the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.
Stephen Smith grew up in rural Nova Scotia, where he sang and played the piano from an early age. After undergraduate work in both piano and organ at Acadia University in his home province, he attended the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester, England, where he received a Master’s degree and the college’s Professional Performer’s Diploma. During this time he gave recitals all over England and participated in several national and international competitions, winning numerous awards and distinctions. Since 1990, Stephen has lived in Vancouver, obtaining the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts from the University of British Columbia and contributing to the musical life of the city as a performer, teacher, adjudicator, conductor, and composer.
Violinist Nikita Pogrebnoy was born in St. Petersburg, Russia where he graduated from the world-famous St. Petersburg Conservatory with highest honours. He then came to the United States by the invitation of Victor Rosenbaum, the Director of the Longy School of Music, who after hearing his performance awarded him a full scholarship to study in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Nikita is the winner of the Valentino Bucchi International Competition in Rome, Italy. Since then he has appeared as both soloist and with various chamber ensembles across Russia, Spain, Central America and the United States. He has also performed at numerous festivals, including the International Musical Arts Institute in Fryeburg, Maine, and the Colorado Music Festival, among others. He has been broadcast on both television and radio in the United States, including the National Public Radio, which aired nationwide.
